<!--paging_filter--><p>One of the big problems plaguing iOS 7 for some users is a tendency for apps and the home screen to crash, triggering a soft reboot. As <a href="http://mashable.com/2014/01/22/iphone-screen-of-death/" target="_blank">Mashable </a>relates, it's called the "white/black screen of death," and Apple wants iPhone users to know that a fix for the issue is coming in a future iOS 7 update.</p><p>In the words of Apple spokesperson Trudy Muller, "We have a fix in an upcoming software update for a bug that can occasionally cause a home screen crash."</p><p><img src="/files/u334114/2014/01/blackscreen.jpg" width="620" height="371" /></p><p>Mashable notes that users have been witnessing these crashes ever since the system went live back in September, and the issue seems to affect all phones running iOS 7 regardless of model. The "white or black screen of death" refers the black or white boot screens that pop up during a reboot depending on if your phone has a black or white casing. Most users seem to agree that the problems become most prominent when the phone slips below a 30 percent battery charge.</p><p>The fix itself is expected to appear with the official launch of iOS 7.1, which we may not see until March.</p><p><em>Follow this article's writer,<a href="https://twitter.com/LeifJohnson" target="_blank">&nbsp;Leif Johnson</a>, on Twitter.</em></p>http://www.maclife.com/article/news/apple_announces_fix_ios_7s_black_screen_death_coming#commentsNewsappleblack screen of deathcrashesiOS 7iphonerebootThu, 23 Jan 2014 01:04:14 +0000Leif Johnson19126 at http://www.maclife.com
